The Kyiv City State Administration (KCSA) is in no hurry to make public the data on the 2010 city budget implementation. Even though the Kyiv City Council passed decision on December 30, 2010 to adopt the 2011 city budget, KCSA has not presented a report on the implementation of the 2010 budget as of January 25, 2011. There is only analytical information available in a brief report on the use of the city budget in 2010.

On May 31, 2010, Ukraine’s President Viktor Yanukovych submitted a Bill on the Judicial System and Status of judges (Bill 6450) to the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine (Ukrainian Parliament). The new bill resembles numerous bills on the judicial system and status of judges, introduced by ex-President Viktor Yushchenko. Specifically, it requires specialized training for a person to be appointed a judge; competition for a position of a judge held by the permanent Supreme Qualification Commission of Judges (SQCJ); clear grounds to institute disciplinary provisions against a judge; declaration of incomes and expenses of a judge and their family members; a specified salary of a judge; ensuring independence of courts of appeals and dissolving courts martial etc. The new bill however threatens to undermine judges’ independence since it creates possibilities for protecting some of them, while persecuting others.

Mykola Azarov’s Cabinet has decided to prove it is more professional than Yulia Tymoshenko’s Cabinet was, so it wasted no time drafting a Budget Resolution for 2011. But similarly to its predecessors, Mr. Azarov’s ministers have been preparing a new state budget based on the legislation yet to be passed.

The last two and a half years of work of the Ukrainian parliament, Verkhovna Rada, demonstrates that political parties and blocs have failed to fulfill their election pledges, ignoring needs of their voters and discrediting the idea of parliamentarism in the country.
